A Studious Affair

Ch.2

Second chapter guys and.... NO LATE UPDATE! Thank you to all who voted, commented on the last chapter and I hope you enjoy this one :)

Sleeping was difficult for me. I was tossing and turning last night all because of Mr.Malik or, Zayn. He couldn't be erased from my mind. His beautiful features were doing a slideshow in my mind everytime I closed my eyes. 

"Dani, sweetie! 7:52, wake up or you'll be late!" 

I roll off my bed and stare at myself in the mirror trying to figure out a way to make myself presentable today. I'll just do a quick messy bun, splash a little bit of makeup and I'm ready to go. I slip into my light coloured pink skinny jeans with my cream coloured jumper. My bright red coloured TOMS and my JanSport sit on the floor awaiting its use. I grab them and storm downstairs in rush for my mother's lovely cooking. Her light blond hair cascades over her shoulder while a gleam produces in her eyes as she cooks the pancakes. I wish I inherited her looks but sadly, my father's jet black hair, grey dull eyes and pale skin were passed onto me. It's been years since I've seen my father. He left so inconspicuously. Without attention, without reason. He was a horrible loving father anyways. He never showed his love to me, nor my mom. He spent all his money on alcohol, drugs, anything that could make him lose control of his actions or lack in intelligence. I don't know how my mother put up with him, he was so abusive towards my mother and I. After he left that night I recieved my last punishment, my mother burned all the memories we had left of him. Only scars and bruises are left leaving with shivering memories of my past. 

I engulf my food quickly and kiss my mother good bye and head out the door where Cameron always waits for me. I hear my mother call for me from inside and I turn in her direction, 

"Dani, your gym equipment!" 

I huffed and walk in her direction in defeat. I've always despised gym the minute I broke my arm sitting in the infirmary for the whole period. I try to ditch that horrific class by hiding my gym equipment but my mother always finds it. I hop into Cameron's car and throw my bag in the back. I sit in the front and buckle myself up. 

"Hey, can I borrow your gym equipment? I left mine in the washer." asked Cameron before starting the car. 

I gradually pass her my bag and begin our brief travel to Bradford Academy. Cameron finds a parking spot and parks her car. She looks out the window and points at Mr.Malik exiting his BMW with yesterday's assignment tucked tightly to his chest.

"EEE! There's Mr.Malik looking hot as usual!" she complimented stepping out of the car. I hop out of the car and swing my bag over my shoulder. Zayn catches my gaze and waved happily at me. I sheepishly wave back and he flashes me his infamous smile. I immediately look away and bring my attention towards Cameron. She looks at my dumbfounded with her jaw dropped.

"Mr.Malik just..... He waved his hand at you! You've been presented by a friendly gesture by the most sexiest man alive..." muttered Cameron looking at me amazed. I roll my eyes and jostle her playfully. I place my things in my locker and head off to gym with Cameron. I was happy she asked me if she could borrow my gym kit. I wouldn't want to wind up in the infirmary for not kicking the ball correctly. I have a lot to live up to and ending up in a wheelchair is not my future! 

I walk in the change room and sit on the benches located in the middle on the lockers. I lay down and ponder over Zayn. Maybe he's just being friendly with me and he's probably taken. 23 and still single? Impossible! He's good looking, smart, a nice build. Everything a girl wants in a guy and something I've never found. Cameron hovers her head over my body and gives me a foolish look. I push her back and pick myself up. 

"So, what's your excuse now?" she questioned as we walked towards the gym. 

"I'll just be honest I guess. Anyway, Coach Johnson is a reasonable man."

I casually walk outside and set myself on the bench. I wait for Coach Johnson to walk out but someone else walks in...

"Hello, you all know me as your English teahcer, Mr.Malik. I will also be your PE teacher for a short period of time.

Oh shit...

Yeah, I know I promised a longer chapter but, I just wanted for you guys to a wait a bit! Sorry for the mishap and stuff... :/
